Lyrics

[PETER SKELLERN as SKIP, JEREMY NICHOLAS as BADGER, MARTIN HOWELLS as JIMMY] We're birdmen, we're B-Flight, we're the best \We soar way above all the rest We've the eyes of a hawk The wisdom of an owl We don't swim or walk We're neither fish nor fowl We're birdmen, we're B-Flight, we're the bees' knees We bzz, bzz, bzz where'er we please Swooping over hilltops And climbing through the air We're so close to heaven He say, "who dat down dere" We're birdmen, we're B-Flight, we're the cream Man, do we make a handsome team The ladies in the squadron Are mightily impressed There just ain't no holding them When I peel off my Mae West We toil and we slave and never rest We're birdmen, we're B-Flight, we're the best [Scat] [PETER SKELLERN as SKIP, JEREMY NICHOLAS as BADGER] Look upon this specimen of youth Unquestioning, unfearing, uncouth Every inch a leader A man with grit and dash Our hero [MARTIN HOWELLS as JIMMY] Huhhhh! [PETER SKELLERN as SKIP] A bit peculiar since his crash Take, for example, his noble chin Broad shoulders, bright eyes, and friendly grin He's a credit to his country While you sleep safe and sound [MARTIN HOWELLS as JIMMY] I'll be up there fighting [PETER SKELLERN as SKIP, JEREMY NICHOLAS as BADGER] Just to avoid his round [All] We sweep all before us from our path At danger we shrug and gaily laugh (Ha!) We're eagles, immortal Olympian in stance The foe flee in fear For they never stand a chance We're dauntless and daring in our quest We're birdmen, we're B-Flight, we're the best [Scat] We're British, we're British through and through The finest, the fewest of the few We're giants, leviathans Gods among mere men When the enemy keeps coming Who sends them home again? Who's brave and courageous? You've guessed We're birdmen, we're B-Flight, we're the best We're birdmen, we're B-Flight, we're the best We're birdmen, we're B-Flight, we're the best
